IMPORTANT:
There will be no painting deliveries made between 3rd July and 13th July; similarly, any purchases made will not be acknowledged from 3rd July until the 11th July earliest. Your emails to me will receive an auto-response until 11th July.
July 1st. More news updates soon. Just finished the main section of an oil painting, with the box canvas sides still to do. It is so hot, everything is drying rapidly!
June 18th. Two new paintings now online, "Tulips at Dawn" and "As Shadows Fall".
June 6th. I am working on three separate pictures at the moment, trying to bring each one to a satisfactory conclusion. These points in time can be make or break for an image. Often a painting gets put aside for several weeks, or longer, simply because the next stages are not yet quite clear. With certain styles I have got into the habit of simply working and reworking an image until I get a good feeling about it. This can have unexpected results, some good and some bad!
The price of purchased blank canvases from some quarters has been rising steadily. I am avoiding too many "ready-mades" and stretching my own, using the roll of canvas I purchased recently. This is working out fine. I will not be altering the general prices of my paintings, however, since they are weighing-in just about right with other people's work. I am going to plan some more 24 x 24 inch square pictures, because these seem to be amongst the most popular sizes. During June I should have one or two more new pictures to go online, but will not be "rushing" them out.
